Tailwind Rebuild is based on a patent-pending mathematical model that enables us to build a complete protein in a very efficient way starting with organic rice protein and supplementing it with amino acids. This is important because only complete protein is used for recovery. It turns out that the total amount of protein that you see on a nutrition label doesn't really mean anything when it comes to recovery because only a portion of that protein is complete; the rest is incomplete. That's why the carbohydrate to protein ratio doesn't really mean a lot but the amounts of carbohydrates and complete protein do. To put things in perspective, you need to drink 2x as much chocolate milk and 3x more of other recovery drinks in order to match the complete protein found in Tailwind Rebuild.
